Grandmother banged pipes for help, but neighbors raised a petition to stop the noise
An elderly French woman who was trapped in her bathroom for three weeks has finally been rescued, media reports said.
The 69-year-old grandmother got stuck in her Paris bathroom when the door lock broke, Agence France-Presse reported.
Firefighters broke into her home and freed her on Friday after a neighbor noticed that she had not picked up her mail in weeks and called the police.
Authorities said the woman survived by drinking tap water and was in a "very weakened" state when she was found, according to the reports.
"She was badly malnourished and in a state of shock and has been taken to hospital to recover from her ordeal," a police spokeswoman said Tuesday.
